There are always changes in WWE along with rumors of other things happening and Karrion Kross has reflected on how he deals with them.

Karrion Kross made his return to WWE with his wife Scarlett in August 2022. It was less than one year after the couple was released by WWE while Vince McMahon was still the man in charge of the creative team. Now that Paul “Triple H” Levesque is running the show, Kross is a featured star on the Smackdown brand.

Kross and Scarlett are two of many former stars that have returned to the company since Triple H ascended to his role of Chief Content Officer following the retirement of Vince McMahon.

During an interview with My San Antonio, Karrion Kross was asked how he deals with all the rumors and changes that exist when you’re a part of WWE.

“Well, after being released once when I hear about this stuff, I just kind of take it day-by-day. There’s so much in my life, personally and professionally that I can’t control. That’s the reality of it. I try to focus on what I can control, and I put all my time and energy into things that are going to provide a return. And it’s really easy for all of us to get worried or concerned or become paranoid about potential situations and stuff like that. I don’t let any of my energy go in that direction. I’m human. I’m not a robot. You know, sometimes I do wonder like all of us do.”

As he continued, Kross talked about his experiences with former WWE Chairwoman Stephanie McMahon and her recent resignation from the company.

“But I can tell you, I’ve met Stephanie McMahon on a couple occasions and she was really cool. I can’t ever see her completely stepping away from WWE. This is her passion. I mean, but you know, when you’re a talented person, and you have so many different interests. Why wouldn’t you want to try different things? You know, even as wrestlers we’re good at a lot of different stuff.”

“We like to explore different options and stuff like that. And let me tell you, when we have time off between shows, it’s really nice to be home. And I imagine being in the business for that long, with how much time you’re away from home, maybe she just wants to hang out with her kids.”

While Karrion Kross is going to be in the Royal Rumble itself on January 28th, he also has a big match on the January 27th edition of Smackdown he faces Rey Mysterio in singles action.

During the same interview, Kross also revealed that he wore a disguise on the day he returned to WWE and he plans to share the pictures of his disguise some day in the future.
